  1. There was a sign at Big Noon Kickoff that said “JD Vance is a Buckeye… and Weird”
  2. Yeah, another example of an enterprise with zero redeeming value or benefit for society
  3. Had a friend at UT that started working for one of those call centers in Austin in the 90’s. He eventually dropped out of school because he was actually making what seemed like a good amount for a 19 year old kid at the time.
  4. I was born and raised there and lived in Amarillo for a while after college. Actually saw Bill Clinton speak in that very room sometime around 2008. Amarillo’s big enough to have enough democrats to fill that room. Just way too many idiots on the other side. But would be nice if Allred can cut down the margins in the red rural areas and small cities enough to close the gap.
  5. That’s what the Sunday JC Penney underwear ads were for.
  6. Kurt Cobain was born in 1967 Douglas Coupland who coined the term Generation X was born in 1961 my dividing line is those who came of age after Vietnam are Gen X
  7. The spectators got more for their money’s worth too
  8. Of course, the Soviet army included the Ukrainians, as well as the Baltic States. I’m starting to wonder if the majority of the badasses in the Soviet Union came from the non Russian parts
  9. Time to pull off one of those VY era comeback beatdowns of Okie state
  10. Ha, the Republican National Convention is basically a middle school lunchroom with press going around
  11. I remember that lecture. Forgie was awesome.
  12. Texas has an open primary system. Anyone can vote in either party’s primary. There are other states that have closed primary systems, in which you have to register as a member of a party when you register to vote, in order to vote in that party’s primary.
  13. I was a wee bit shitfaced
  14. I sometimes have apocalyptic dreams, perhaps from growing up in Amarillo and being told the commies were gonna nuke us from an early age since we had Pantex. I remember one when I was in college at UT probably sometime around 1997. I was walking around West Campus going to get a 40 oz from Grande Mart or something like that as I was wont to do, smoking a camel light, (damn I miss smoking) when all of a sudden I heard the Voice of God resounding over the Earth. It said “MAKE WAY FOR THE AK” in the loudest noise I had ever heard, then the shit hit the fan. It was quite intense.
  15. Well, Lincoln Riley came from Muleshoe. Maybe better to let the Russkies have it
  16. I rewatched them before I replied to you the first time. Looks to me like Dunns foot comes down on the ground next to the Canadian without making contact. 1:40- 1:41 looks like the best shot to me. Smart play by the Canuck to draw the foul though at that point in the game. and you are correct in that Dunn seems to have lost a step.
  17. No, The canadian player dove, Dunn never touched her foot. Pretty obvious. The first goal was mostly a mistake by Naeher who didn't need to go out that far when there were other defenders in position to shut down the attack which is also probably why Dunn was not in a hurry to get back.
  18. Just got around to watching today's match. The call that gave Canada the PK to tie was terrible.
  19. I reckon the Earth will get destroyed by a Vogon constructor fleet before then
  20. Whoever green lit that "what a pro wants" ATT commercial should be shot
  21. Man, whose dick did NC State suck? What fantastic day for their basketball fans
  22. Whoever screwed up the three point line. You had one job... From my seat.
